    ham to ḳhvāboñ duniyā se aa.e hue log haiñ

    ham ko rasm-o-rivājoñ ke is pech-o-ḳham meñ ulajhne ḳhātir banāyā gayā nahīñ

    ham ne lafzoñ ko mā'nī se sarshār rakhne zimma uThāyā huā hai

    isī ek koshish meñ lipTe hue in kitāboñ ke varqoñ pe ashkoñ ke vo zā.iqe

    jin se dardoñ be-kal ravānī chhalaktī huī dikh rahī ho batāo bhalā

    tum batāo

    ki vo kis jahān-e-ḳharābāt se raushnī qatāroñ ko qarzoñ sūrat meñ le kar

    baḌe maan se aise manzar

    banātī huī aañkh hai

    aañkh vo ḳhvāb-nagrī se aa.ī huī

    haath vo jin pe apne hāthoñ ke nas kaaT dene bhārī ik bojh ho

    aur qadam

    vo qadam jo ki jab bhī uThe to jafāoñ ko ik maqnātīsī kashish ke natīje meñ khīñche

    to phir

    dauḌte aa.eñ saare 'azāboñ sarāboñ añdheroñ ke saare qabīle

    usī maqnātīsī kashish taraf

    jis ko ḳhvāboñ meñ dekhā gayā ho

    haqīqat se us koī vāsta nahīñ ho

    aur vo bāñheñ

    vo ḳhamdār bāñheñ

    vahī

    jin se milne ḳhātir baḌī iztirābī ke 'ālam meñ

    raftār yūñhī baḌhāte hue

    us ghaḌī ke shikanje se āzād hone ḳhvāhish meñ kitne minute

    jaane kitne minute har minute be-sabab yūñhī girte rahe

    vaqt ke aa.ine gard-ālūd hote hue dikh rahe haiñ jinheñ

    vo sabhī ḳhuun ke saare dhabboñ pādāsh meñ sab jhameloñ ko apne kāñdhoñ pe rakh kar chale

    aur chalte hue ek pal ke liye bhī zarā saañs lene ḳhātir ruke tak nahīñ

    jo thake tak nahīñ

    ham vahī log haiñ

    ham to ḳhvāboñ duniyā se aa.e hue log haiñ

    ham ko rasm-o-rivājoñ ke is pech-o-ḳham meñ ulajhne ḳhātir banāyā gayā nahīñ

    ham ne lafzoñ ko mā'nī se sarshār rakhne zimma uThāyā huā hai

    hum to KHwabon ki duniya se aae hue log hain

    hum ko rasm-o-riwajon ke is pech-o-KHam mein ulajhne ki KHatir banaya gaya hi nahin

    hum ne lafzon ko ma'ni se sarshaar rakhne ka zimma uThaya hua hai

    isi ek koshish mein lipTe hue in kitabon ke warqon pe ashkon ke wo zaiqe

    jin se dardon ki be-kal rawani chhalakti hui dikh rahi ho batao bhala

    tum batao

    ki wo kis jahan-e-KHarabaat se raushni ki qataron ko qarzon ki surat mein le kar

    baDe man se aise manzar

    banati hui aankh hai

    aankh wo KHwab-nagri se aai hui

    hath wo jin pe apne hi hathon ke nas kaT dene ka bhaari sa ek bojh ho

    aur qadam

    wo qadam jo ki jab bhi uThe to jafaon ko ek maqnatisi kashish ke natije mein khinche

    to phir

    dauDte aaen sare 'azabon sarabon andheron ke sare qabile

    usi maqnatisi kashish ki taraf

    jis ko KHwabon mein dekha gaya ho

    haqiqat se us ka koi wasta hi nahin ho

    aur wo banhen

    wo KHamdar banhen

    wahi

    jin se milne ki KHatir baDi iztirabi ke 'alam mein

    raftar yunhi baDhate hue

    us ghaDi ke shikanje se aazad hone ki KHwahish mein kitne minute

    jaane kitne minute har minute be-sabab yunhi girte rahe

    waqt ke aaine gard-alud hote hue dikh rahe hain jinhen

    wo sabhi KHun ke sare dhabbon ki padash mein sab jhamelon ko apne hi kandhon pe rakh kar chale

    aur chalte hue ek pal ke liye bhi zara sans lene ki KHatir ruke tak nahin

    jo thake tak nahin

    hum wahi log hain

    hum to KHwabon ki duniya se aae hue log hain

    hum ko rasm-o-riwajon ke is pech-o-KHam mein ulajhne ki KHatir banaya gaya hi nahin

    hum ne lafzon ko ma'ni se sarshaar rakhne ka zimma uThaya hua hai
